Written by Irritable Ted on 02.07.2017 at 13:25 Yeah most instruments are barely audible, the guitar is completely buried.. If it's the final then prepare your anus Jari

Well. It have some weird, atmoblack vibe that I like at this moment. Sounds a bit like Duskmourn. But as written above - if it's the final mix, then Jari should be banished or something, because it sounds HORRIBLE.

Watching him play guitar without any guitar sounds being produced is hilarious!

Written by Tagträumer on 02.07.2017 at 17:50 Checked out "Eternal Darkness" and it's just as crappy. Almost sounds like an under-produced symphonic black metal record from the 90's. "The Forest That Weeps" only seems better because there are less symphonic elements in that snippet... Music-wise it may be good but the mix is probably the worst of all their records so far.

I hated the mix. The guitars can barely be heard.

I can totally see many people getting disappointed and Jaril writing a 10 page long whining on facebook on "how he couldn't finish writing" or "how he was not able to fulfill his musical potential".

It's troubling. All of the song snippets from their documentary on the crowdfunding campaign sounded great. I was like "oh, I actually believe him when he says the mix is great." Now this comes out and sounds like trash. What in the fuck happened?

Written by DonMoenning on 06.07.2017 at 20:32That's why I haven't listened to all the samples. You add them all up, there won't be any surprises when you finally get the album.

Written by EmeraldSword on 06.07.2017 at 22:46 For sure. I was referring to the MIX of the album, though, not the music itself. I enjoy being surprised as well, but I was taken aback by how compressed the "final" mix sounds and how quiet the guitars are.
